I remember as a child taking field trips to the science fairs. I remember walking around in amazement of all the many projects that the students had researched, built, and were able to present. When I was really young my favorite was always the volcano. I never understood how they made it erupt like a real volcano.
Then there were the earth science projects that covered all different aspects of the ocean, rocks, minerals, and soil. I always wished my parents would let me have an ant farm to study because I thought it was so interesting to watch them through the glass as they would work through their tunnels, I could sit and watch them for hours in amazement.
The human body, health, and nutrition ones were always amazing to me in the way they could make models of the human eye or skeletons. I couldn’t figure out how they knew all of that information about stuff we couldn’t even see.
And all of these projects were done BEFORE we had access to the internet and such awesome websites as educationbug.org which puts all of this information, ideas, and instruction in one place. The science project lessons are continually being posted so check back often for great ideas for science fair projects, or just fun home projects to do with your kids.
